[help] font is taking over my VS!

I had just installed the latest Multi-Plugin for iTunes, and for those of you who have installed it, by default a new font is added to iTunes.

Once the new font is opened (lucinda for multi-plugin) my computer used it for its self. For example, I'm using SS Gloss as my visual style (using stylexp) and now everyfont that I see is Lucinda, where as before it was something else.

I've restarted my computer multiple times and it won't go away. All menus, icons, even the text in Firefox shows Lucinda. To be honest, I'm not much for Lucinda, so I really want this gone.

What can I do? What should I do? Why did it change on me like this?

(P..S., I'm using Windows XP)

Here is a screenshot. The top screen is of the VS before multi-tunes was installed. The second one is after installation, thus putting Lucinda (or at least some other font) over the VS.

i really don't encourage people to use multi-plugin for itunes.

I fixed it, sortof. I went to system restore and there just happened to be a restore point before all of this happened. My VS is back to normal and I couldn't be happier!

I'm not going to install multi-plugin again, no disrespect to the maker of it.

I do have this problem with iTunes since I upgraded to 4.8.

In the Import settings, no matter what I change it to for MP3 bit rate, it always changes back to 160 kbps. What the heck?

it is because in SSGloss you are supposed to install Lucida Grande to get the correct look. you never installed it thus you had what you had in your before picture, an ugly font that was used because the visual style couldn't find the correct one. now that you have installed the correct font, it is using it. if you switched to a theme that did not use Lucida (like original Luna) it would go back to using Tahoma or whatever.

Wow, c_l_d_j, that makes so much sense now. I actually like the Tahoma (or whatever) font that it used before. Everything is back to normal now. Thanks so much for explaining it to me. It makes so much sense.
